[Intro]
Late night
Teeth clenched
Cold air
Hot breath
Every scar I kept
Turned to armor on my chest (yeah)
[Verse 1]
I was crawling in the blackout
Rain in my shoes
Eyes red
Heart bruised
Every promise that they backed out
Left me talking to the wounds
To the wounds
Shaking hands with my demons
Told them
"Watch how I walk through the fear"
All that pressure had a reason
Now the storm sounds sweet in my ear (woah)
[Pre-Chorus]
I felt the break
I felt the burn
I fed the flame with every hurt
I died a bit
Then I returned
Bigger
Bolder
Wide-awake
[Chorus]
Shadow heartbeats
Drumming in the dark
That's me
Rising from the cut
From the deep
Turning every scar to a key
Shadow heartbeats
Pounding like a war inside
Dancing on the edge of the night
I was made to bleed
Just to rise
Shadow heartbeats
Shadow heartbeats
[Verse 2]
They tried to drown me in the silence
Chained my voice
Still the rhythm broke through
I learned the language of the violence
Turned every blow into a move
Into a move
Now I’m stepping like I own it
Ash on my skin
But the fire in my eyes
Every fall
Every moment
Pushes more power in my spine (hey)
[Pre-Chorus]
I felt the break
I felt the burn
I fed the flame with every hurt
I died a bit
Then I returned
Bigger
Bolder
Wide-awake
[Chorus]
Shadow heartbeats
Drumming in the dark
That's me
Rising from the cut
From the deep
Turning every scar to a key
Shadow heartbeats
Pounding like a war inside
Dancing on the edge of the night
I was made to bleed
Just to rise
Shadow heartbeats
Shadow heartbeats
[Bridge]
Who am I now?
I’m the fear you couldn’t fracture
The calm in the disaster
The storm you couldn’t master (woah)
Who am I now?
I’m the glow inside the black
When the world fades to black
I’m the one coming back
Coming back (hey)
[Chorus]
Shadow heartbeats
Drumming in the dark
That's me
Rising from the cut
From the deep
Turning every scar to a key
Shadow heartbeats
Pounding like a war inside
Dancing on the edge of the night
I was made to bleed
Just to rise
Shadow heartbeats
Shadow heartbeats
